It's fine to say fuck the IDF, there's no problem with that. Will you also condemn Hamas terrorists whose October 7th attacks caused the current Israeli response? The Hamas terrorists targeted regular people in their homes, wiped out whole families, targeted young people at a music festival, etc. Will you condemn them the same way you condemn the IDF?
You know, after the Oct. 7 massacre I was very careful when discussing the abuses against Palestinians that led up to it in order to avoid dismissing the legitimate pain the attack had left. And I think you need to work on learning this skill.
A post about the death of a respected care worker is not the time to try to justify the military campaign that killed him.
There are plenty of posts to debate whether this military campaign is anything other than a strongman's effort to inflame a regional holywar to evade accountability for failing Israel and Palestine alike. But in this thread, please respect that people are mourning.
Sure. Can you do the same?
What's the name of that logical fallacy where by there's a false conclusion hiding in one of the premises? I'm stoned but not too stoned to recognize that disproportionate revenge is not an excuse for continuing to kill innocent people
